// DQMFileSaver and DQMServices/FileIO DQMFileSaverOnline both write this
// format, the code is shared here (evnetually, these modules should become one
// again).
// This code is in DQMServices/Core to also allow the legacy DQMStore::save
// interface to use this without adding another dependency.

  // supports non-threaded mode. `fileupdate` is passed to ROOT unchanged.
  // The run number passed in is added to the Directory structure inside the
  // file ("Run xxxxxx/.../Run Summary/...") if not 0. It is only used to
  // select only MEs for that run iff saveall is false, else all MEs (RUN, LUMI
  // and JOB) are saved.
